[00:01] <wrst> chris4585: looks like it i'm a kde user now :)
[00:02] <chris4585> ah, all good, just thought you might like to know
[00:08] <vychune> sup wrst
[00:09] <wrst> not much vychune how are you?
[00:09] <wrst> chris4585: yeah it is good to know i want to like gnome
[00:10] <chris4585> same
[00:12] <vychune> im doing great
[00:13] <vychune> and im a XFCE4 guy myself
[00:13] <chris4585> openbox <3
[00:21] <vychune> *malfoy eyebrow raise*
[00:21] <vychune> im rolling out guys, not on my pc lol
[00:21] <vychune> o/
[00:39] <wrst> chris4585: ordered and received a printer for my messed up one... a samsung and i must say linux support is good, not open i don't think on the driver but its a good driver
[00:53] <chris4585> ah, at least it works and that is awesome
[00:53] <chris4585> I've not really heard of any issues ever with any samsung devices
[00:54] <chris4585> so I guess they do good support?
[02:00] <wrst> I don't know but their software works well on this WiFi printer and I can print from my phone which is cool
[02:13] <chris4585> that is cool
[02:15] <wrst> yes had a dandy little android app
[02:16] <wrst> and iOS if you are into that type of thing
[02:17] <wrst> but I'm turning into a Samsung fan love my S III phone
[02:17] <chris4585> yeah I like samsung, but for other computer stuff I really like asus
[02:18] <chris4585> they are quality and usually offer awesome features with their products
[02:25] <wrst> yep I have an Asus laptop
[02:33] <chris4585> nice
[02:34] <wrst> its a low end one also
[02:34] <wrst> but still good stuff or I think
[02:35] <chris4585> yeah
[02:37] <wrst> I hope I can buy a system76 next time
[02:37] <wrst> don't want to have to mess with secure about or any of that jazz
[02:37] <chris4585> that would be nice, their laptops are pretty nice
[02:38] <wrst> yep i'm not for sure if arch has a solution for secure boot or not
[02:39] <chris4585> for UEFI?
[02:39] <chris4585> my asus board has UEFI (this computer), and arch has no issues, but I don't know about secure boot
[02:40] <wrst> yeah don't know how a windows 8 machine would work with it or if that is as big of an issue
[02:46] <chris4585> if it helps, this machine is win8 ready
[02:46] <chris4585> I bought this mobo specifically because of that
[02:47] <chris4585> it has a few win8 features which are neat, for instance, if win8 is installed it will boot fast, so there is a button on the board to boot directly to UEFI
[02:47] <chris4585> or
[02:48] <chris4585> I can plug the reset switch into a different header, so when the reset button is pressed it will boot directly into UEFI
[02:48] <wrst> hmm coo
[02:48] <wrst> l
[02:48] <wrst> *cool :)
[02:48] <wrst> i am not that well versed i'm still in a bios world :)
[02:49] <chris4585> it works too which is nice, but this board's UEFI doesn't boot insanely fast like I'd hoped :/
[02:49] <chris4585> I watch too many videos
[02:49] <wrst> but you know your stuff
[02:49]  * chris4585 nods
[02:50] <chris4585> dude if I just want to learn something I head over to youtube lol
[02:50] <wrst> very true just haven't needed to learn about that one yet :)
[02:50] <chris4585> well when looking for a new motherboard a particular video won me over
[02:52] <wrst> its been a long time since i have built a machine
[02:53] <chris4585> that would be my dream job
[02:54] <wrst> doing that all the time? yeah would be fun
[02:55] <chris4585> yeah :)
[03:03] <wrst> chris4585: i have to give kde a big edge over gnome for theming
[03:04] <chris4585> wrst, definitely, KDE has earned that achievement
[03:04] <chris4585> it is definitely good at that
[03:04] <chris4585> wrst, http://chris4585.tumblr.com/post/36257317324/okay-ive-felt-like-i-have-been-doing-the-same
[03:06] <wrst> sweet
[03:07] <chris4585> thanks, I setup funtoo for a friend, he is making a funtoo based distro (I believe? lol) and needs a bunch of binaries and they have to be compiled...
[03:07] <chris4585> so I'm helping him out
[03:07] <chris4585> funtoo is actually not that bad, just everything is compiled, and emerge for a package manager isn't that bad either
[03:08] <wrst> emerge? gentoo?
[03:09] <chris4585> yes
[03:09] <chris4585> gentoo based
[03:09] <chris4585> http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Welcome
[03:10] <chris4585> it feels very similar to what arch does
[03:10] <wrst> here is my beginning of a dark theme attempt: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2959906/kde7.png
[03:10] <wrst> i have been tempted to try gentoo in a VM just haven't had a month to work on it and let it compile stuff :)
[03:10] <chris4585> that looks nice wrst
[03:11] <chris4585> wrst, it actually didn't take me that long to install funtoo, maybe 2hrs
[03:11] <wrst> wallpaper needs work and that blue glow gets on my nerves
[03:11] <chris4585> the blue glow can be turned off in effects I believe
[03:11] <chris4585> the option is somewhere... just gotta hunt it down lol
[03:12] <wrst> yes and you cna make it a dark "glow" like it should be
[03:12] <chris4585> the wiki for installing funto was way shorter than arch, and for a funtoo install any modern livecd will do
[03:12] <chris4585> funtoo*
[03:12] <wrst> hmm
[03:12] <chris4585> http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Funtoo_Linux_Installation
[03:12] <chris4585> I used archbang ironically to install funtoo
[03:12] <chris4585> lol
[03:14] <wrst> pretty cool
[03:14] <chris4585> yeah
[03:14] <wrst> i'm just pretty happy with arch, its automated enough but also gives me plenty of control
[03:15] <chris4585> agreed, arch is great of course but funtoo is well pretty much the same just all source
[03:15] <chris4585> only real difference I saw
[03:16] <wrst> its all good
[03:17] <chris4585> wrst, mind if I share your screenshot with thousands of people?
[03:17] <chris4585> lol
[03:17] <wrst> sure
[03:17] <wrst> go for it :)
[03:17] <chris4585> maybe not that many
[03:17] <chris4585> lol
[03:18] <wrst> i doubt thousands  would be interested :)
